As a Band 5 Staff Nurse you would be responsible for caring for your own caseload of patients. This would  involve assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating patient care needs and assessments. You would  be caring for surgical patients following head and neck surgery but can also be caring for other surgical  specialty patients on the ward. You would also be working with health care support workers and student  nurses and need to delegate tasks effectively and safely.

You would work closely and liaise with the multidisciplinary team regularly to ensure patient care needs are met. You would practice in line with Trust  policies and procedures and comply with data protection and confidentiality legislation. You would need to  actively participate in both mandatory training and education development opportunities relevant to your role.
